▪ Abstract Epithelial barriers on mucosal surfaces at different sites in the body differ
dramatically in their cellular organization, and antigen sampling strategies at diverse …

Epithelial cells (ECs) cover the surfaces of the body such as skin, airways, or the intestinal
tract and provide an important link between the outside environment and the body interior …

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) of the female genital tract is rare. Four new cases are
reported, and there is a review of the 38 cases in the literature. This disease may involve the …

To study the development of lesions in mucosal disease, the spread of cytopathogenic (cp)
bovine virus diarrhea virus (BVDV) to different organs was examined in relation to the time …

Using a large panel of MoAbs in quantitative morphometric analysis of
immunohistochemically stained tissue sections, we compared the frequency and distribution …

The upper airway is the first site of exposure to inhaled antigens and the site of initiation of
mucosal immunity to certain antigens; however, the intraepithelial lymphoid populations of …

Virtual reality (VR) technology has emerged as a ground-breaking tool in neuroscience,

The rabbit palatine tonsil was studied by electron microscopy to determine whether M-cells
similar to those of the Peyer's patches exist in the tonsil epithelium. A subpopulation of crypt …

The palatine tonsils play an important role in immunologic surveillance and resistance to
infection in the upper aerodigestive tract. Dendritic cells and macrophages function to …

50Langerhans cells (LC) are bone marrow-derived cells (ie, leukocytes) which reside in the
epidermis. They have a dendritic shape, constitutively express abundant MHC class II …
